A Silly Left Right Brain Test

Here’s a Fun Test

Here’s a fun test on right and left brain thinking with only a few questions. If you know this stuff you can easily skew it. I tried not to, but I did anyway. We know that I am very right brain. But I also have left brain qualities. I won’t give you my results before you take the test.

Have some fun with it, but don’t plan your life on the results. Click on the title below to try it out.

We all use both sides of our brain and we can develop the side that we don’t use.

Well just did the test before I turned off the computer for the night, and I got a 50/50 split.

At first this didn’t make much sense, then I thought on what I enjoy doing and am good at (detail, reading, quiet vs. creative, writing, dreaming) and yeah I am a 50/50 split if you stick to the traditional definitions of left/right brain.

Thing is, does this mean I am super-well-adjusted, or even more abnormal than I had already given myself credit for? 😉

I came out 45% left and 55% right – that makes sense for me! Funny thing is this would have been much heavier toward left if I did it 5 or 6 years ago! See Liz – that’s one thing that publishing did for me – introduced me to my right brain!

Based on your answer there – you’ve gotta be 65% left brain.
1. Actually I don’t think that’s a one-hemisphere thing.
2. Oh, I wasn’t aware that he really was going through with that.
3. I have one, but It’s hardly ever used.

A joke is not a joke if it has to be explained…
I misepelled the word for being able to use both hands with equal dexterity, and blamed it on a typing error.
You fell into the time warp as my Tardis went by, therefore, the whole conversation is lost in the Twilight Zone.

Liz,
Another commercial, this is an interesting show, I haven’t figured out the ending yet, but I’ll get it by the end of the show.
Thing is, they always leave you haning, you know how a good story is, leave them wanting more and use the cliffhanging thing
Back on, gott go

How many thing can you do at one time?
I know you can do more than one, just like using a remote for the TV and watching 2-3-4 channels at the same time.
It can be done, unless there is thinking involved. Then you need to concentrate, just like orange juice.
Just don’t put everything into one basket.
That is a combination of left and right brain thinking.

Ok, the Dr that you would have met is now the New Doctor that you have to meet.
I, unfortunately, can do more than one thing at a time. Sometimes that is good, sometimes, not so good.
I just needed a little get lost in fantacy time, which is easy watching Sci-fi for me.
I guess that’s why I thought I could do a blog of various types of short stories.

I am much better at critiquing (?) others work than actually writing my own original material. But, I do write a story here and there.

Translating (reforming) thoughts into words can sometimes be difficult. A dreamer has the ability to think, a writer has the ability to put thought into word.
I don’t know if anyone ever said that, but I sounds good.

Well, since I’m not a good writer and you are…
The thought of a dream can be transformed into words if the right person has the ability to translate the thought into a coherent post.
In other words, if you can think it, you can write about it.
If you have the idea, you can do something with it.
Make it into a nice post for one of your blogs.
Please.

What a nice thing to say. I translate dreams into words a lot. Well not so much lately. But still a lot on my wrting blog. I’m planning on doing one tonight about a crab apple tree that I’ve been thinking about in a farming doll-house kind of town where I used to spend my summers.

I’ll think on your your dreaming thoughts and see what bubbles up over the next few days. Thank you for that word. Please. It’s a beautiful word. You didn’t have to say it. But it’s lovely that you did.

You are very socially conscious and a total idealist.
You think there are many things wrong with the world, and you want to fix them.
You have a big idea of how to world could be, and you’ll sacrifice almost anything to work towards this dream.

In love, you can easily see the beauty in someone else. And you never cling too tightly.

You are capable of great love, but it’s hard for you to focus your love on one person or relationship.
You have a lot of outward focus, and you tend to blame the world for your failures.
You are often disappointed by the realities of life – it’s hard for you to accept the shortcomings of the world.

I’m a 50/50 split which makes sense because I wanted to answer “either one but it depends on the situation” for most of the questions.

I was not around last night becasue I was fevorishly working on my blog relocation project, learning WordPress, etc. And now this morning I get up for an hour of working/learning before I have to go down to Jacksonville for 12 hours of work and I find I can’t access my new site or even see my blog! 🙁

I must have done something wrong last night.

Joe, the Doctor is in the TIVO. I haven’t seen it yet, so no spoilers! Gorgeous has watched it but I swore her to secracy.

Oh Chris,
I’ve done that WordPress lose my blog in cyberpsece thing. It takes real talent. I’m proud of you! 🙂 I know how frustrating it is. I hope your host will be able to help you sort things out. We’ll miss you until you’re back.

Hi Chris .. did you just reset the DNS name servers? Sometimes, it takes a few days to see the site everywhere. Maybe it’s not just a server problem? I mean – if it is – it’s not a good sign to go down before you begin.

PS: If I may ask .. what made you go with the .net domain? I first went to chriscree.com and noticed – that’s a different chriscree, right? I also notice there’s already a creeations.com. Since you were starting ‘a-new’ anyway .. why not come out with a unique URL?

I had a similar problem. My real name is HARTLEY B SINGER … (I go by just HART online) and guess what – hartleysinger.com was taken by someone else with middle initial E. Bummer. It’s unfortunate that I never really wanted my own name/domain until 2005 .. as I could have registered it years ago. Now, almost all derivations of HART and SINGER are taken. At least, I now have The-Singers.com website as a consolation.

~wave G’morning!
Yup – that’s pretty much it. I wanted to blog about business, but not about MY business, so I needed a different online name than my offline name (which is also online). Besides .. ask anybody .. I’ve got an answer for everything! Now .. it may not always be the right one .. but most of the times it sure sounds like it could be!

Oh, and as far as the .net thing goes. I made a judgment call. We’ll see how it turns out.

But I am looking down the road when I have multiple blogs. CREEations will continue to be my blog on “practical life philosophy”. It could be argued that it is a glorified Ã¢â¬Åcat blogÃ¢â¬Â. (ie. let me tell you all about what my cat did today).

That is why IÃ¢â¬â¢m not too concerned with the domain not matching the blog title. CREEations has a dual purpose. It is my blog training ground where I am learning both the creative and technical sides of blogging. And it is also a place to express my perspective on holistic life stuff.

And I intend to keep it that way, very personal. So I am willing to pay the price of a little user confusion.

I also have newCREEations.net (and .com) which I will use as an umbrella organization for all of my blogs (with more Ã¢â¬ÅuniqueÃ¢â¬Â domain names) and other business ideas as things grow.

Hi Lucy,
Thanks for answering my question. Economics can use both sides of your brain really well. I bet you find a way to be artful at it. There’s music in numbers too, you know. Music is inherently mathematical.

I took the test. It actually is one of the better tests, except for a couple of questions. It was pretty much correct in that I’m 85% right brain.
However, music is mostly left brain. Yes, right brain people have rhythym, and can perceive good music, but auditory and language is primary in the left brain. Left brain are linear thinkers, which is needed in learning cords…as well, as auditory…the ability to have perfect pitch.
Extreme right-brain people, like myself, are left brain blinded and often are tone deaf. Really!
Also, the question where I must choose between algerbra and geometry are both difficult for the extreme right-brainer. Geometry involves shapes, which is easy, but the problem in geometry comes with equasions or symbolic learning..left brain talent.
Check out rightbrainintelligence.com and let me know what you think. Evie

Okay… I think all the quizzes are a load of crap. One test said that I am left brained (though it was very close 51% left and 49% right) and this test said I was right (40% left, 60% right). What am I left or right? Or maybe already answered my question, and I am pretty evened out on both sides.

It can be hard to find focus sometimes. A few months ago, I was talking with a colleague who was having a hard time finding focus in their work. They spoke of feeling pulled in multiple directions and of many obligations — both at work and with their family. As I listened, I could hear […]

Everyone feels lost sometimes. I don’t think I know anyone who hasn’t been lost in their head at one time or another — even those folks overachieving all over the Internet. We all find those moments that we wonder about who we are and what we want. But the question is not whether everyone gets […]

I felt the more embarrassing fear of people’s judgment. When I decided it was time to write again, I avoided the computer for the longest time. On the rare occasion that I managed to sit myself down to write, I’d get caught up answering email or reading articles around the web, not doing writing I […]
